Rachet managed to sabotage Megatron’s plans, but in the ensuing chaos managed to throw himself and Megatron into a teleporter while the building they were in exploded.
One of Ratchet’s most extreme stories came from the pages of Marvel Comics where writer Simon Furman had Rachet held hostage by Megatron and forced to rebuild Starscream into a potent weapon of revenge. Later versions, especially from Transformers: Animated, and the Michael Bay film series, saw his character altered to resemble that of Kup, a veteran soldier, cranky, and always ready for battle. In his early iterations, he’s seen as dependable if a little obsessive over keeping the Autobots combat ready. But Doctor Rachet is more than that, he’s everybody’s friend and colleague. When your alternate-mode is an ambulance, it’s a given that you’re going to be the medic of the group.
